So I guess is the new joke is ‘how many years does it take Apple to change a lightbulb?” The other takeaway is that the meeting where they leaked the Black iMac was a ruse to quell discontent among the screwed over Mac Pro user base. Apparently the…

In Bloomberg the other day, the total of all streaming services was less than 40% of the income to labels. We never hear this, but always hear the PR that it is undisputed future of music. That 40% would include all services.

Snow Leopard shipped rock solid and stable. The OS has been castrated at the UI level and dumbed down since then. Still think that assuming it will be an ARM chipset is a bit premature. They could be doing an Apple version of x86 just like the A se…

1- end of hackintoshes. 2- should give Apple some extra room to improve security. 3- how much you want to bet we will see fat binaries again?

Still not sure why Apple charges so much for LTE and memory. They need to get more aggressive in their pricing. since I have the big iPad Pro, I’ll keep what I have. Would have loved an up to date iPad Mini with LTE. BTW- we are 1/4th through 201…

Apple should offer ALAC (Apple Lossless) files for a slightly higher price. As it is, I buy the CD and rip it to iTunes in ALAC or buy from HD tracks. If you order a CD from Amazon you also get digital tracks to use and it is no more expensive than …

Always love the "available" as in optional. Car companies are so cheap they make Payday Cash Advance Stores look like models of altruism . My 2016 VW Golf came with CarPlay standard, yet so-called "luxury" brands like Lexus, BMW and Cadillac want t…

This is a big deal. ‘There are already employers and insurers that are giving or refunding the cost of smart watches for the data related to activity and exercise. This could greatly expand that and save lives.

I really do not see the great value in the OLED screen, Face ID or the skinny bezel. Nothing I would pay extra for. To be honest, the camera could do without the dual receptors if it costs one cent extra. Some of us want a nice smartphone, but do n…

There is no compelling reason to let Uber, Apple, GM or anyone else put beta software on public streets and put lives at risk.

redhotfuzz said:Since Apple Music alone is $120/yr ($180/yr for a family), you’re not going to get music and video content for $99/yr. Apple Music is not worth $120/yr. Low quality 128kbps DRMed audio is not anything I have an interest in. I…

I guess it depends on how you count. I pay for Amazon Prime but rarely use the streaming content. I guess Deloitte would count that as a streaming subscription. I do pay for and use DIRECTVNOW after having sampled Hulu, YouTubeTV, Sling TV and DTV…

twistsol1 said: Then again, 40,200 people were killed in 2016 by human drivers. How many cars & trucks and for how many miles compared to the paltry number of Ubers and others? Not exactly a comparable database.

AppleInsider said:Despite some media reports, the Arizona tragedy is not the first-ever death involving self-driving car technology. A Tesla driver, Joshua Brown, was killed while testing Tesla's autopilot mode in July 2016. That is not exac…

Sad thing is that an application like this would never make it past the first (computerized) level of HR screening at Apple- or Wal-Mart today. Years ago the interview was where you could find diamonds in the rough and hire people who did not look s…

I watch a few games a year- College Basketball & Football - but have nointerest in supporting the Disney/ESPN empire of sports gossip. Make no mistake, the talking head shows on ESPN are nothing but a gossip fest and I have less than zero intere…

And what about Stingrays and the companies that make and sell them? Every level of law enforcement is using them, but have signed NDAs that they even own one and are spying on innocent people by sweeping up all the cell phone usage in an area rather…

We may be seeing in phones the same problem PC makers faced when the desktop OSes matured and HW improvements were not as great between generations- people slowed down upgrading because what they had was “good enough”. Most of the people buying sma…

In the Apple Store it sounds like an off brand boom box. If you want to pay $350 for something that sounds like a $100 Wal-Mart Bluetooth speaker, feel free. Don’t forget that the $350 speaker costs $275 to repair out of warranty, so be sure to pu…

What are the requirements for the Mac version? Feral titles in the past tend to have requirements that rule out many Macs despite the graphics not being that special.
